Car Hire With A Tow Bar

Car Hire With A Tow Bar can be quite difficult to arrange as many car rental companies tend not to offer this service as it can affect the insurance liability costs. Insurers will increase their prices as the risk increases for rental of towing vehicles. The risk is higher as there tends to be more chance of damaging your vehicle when using a tow car to pull something like a caravan or a trailer.

As Indigo Car Hire work with a large network of suppliers we are able to provide vehicles for people with unusual requests, in relation to tow bar car hire. Indigo Car Hire specialises in offering services that most other rental companies do not.

Why People Hire Cars With Tow Bars

People often hire cars with tow bars to tour the UK, touring holidays are one of the most popular reasons for hiring a car with a tow bar, the reason behind this is because people often tow caravans or boats across the UK or overseas using the tow bars. When you hire a car with a tow bar from Indigo you can use it touring overseas just let us know before you book, this is another common use as people often drive abroad to bring a trailer back to the UK for either moving house or towing something back.

Tow Bar Car Hire Conditions

Anyone who is over the age of 25 can hire a vehicle with a tow bar. They need to have been driving more than 2 years and have a full, clean driving license.

Whether you need to hire a car hire with a tow bar for your caravan so you can go on your weekend break or if you need a tow car to pull your trailer so you can transport some items around that would not fit in a car, you can always be sure that Indigo can assist you with your tow bar car hire.

There are different vehicles which can be fitted with a towbar, however the main types of vehicle which are generally fitted with tow bars are commercial vehicles including double cab pickup trucks, 4X4’s and some vans. Speak to our experts today and we can give you a list of available towing vehicles that suit your needs.

If you wish to drive a car hire with a towbar then you need to meet the legal requirements which apply to towing a vehicle.

“If you started driving prior to January 1st 1997 and hold a full Category B License then you are eligible to drive a vehicle with a Gross weight of up to 3.5 tonnes. The weight of the trailer that you are towing must be no more than 750 kilograms in total. This means the total combined weight must be no more than 4,250 kilos in total.”

Excellent service and price

I haven't actually been on my holiday yet but wanted to share my experience to date. I am going away with my family in the summer and we wanted to take our folding camper trailer. Our current car does not have a tow bar and it would cost nearly £500 to fit one.

I did a LOT of research online and came across indigocarhire who claimed to have hire cars with tow bars. Two phone calls later and we're all booked up with a cool car with tow bar for 9 days for a damn site less money than any competition.

I dealt with Ann-Marie and the service has been flawless. No deposit required, just card details and everything is paid for on collection of the vehicle.

I can't rate the service high enough. Use this company!

I will submit another review after our holiday but I'm sure it will be just as positive.

Highly professional, friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and more than accommodating

Rob managed to source a tow vehicle to be delivered at my home address at short notice after finding various options. Despite being a specialised car hire, the price was comparable with similar vehicles without the tow bar. As my circumstances changed, Rob was able to offer different solutions. In the end, my damaged car was returned far sooner than originally thought and I didn't require Indigo's services, despite Rob's outstanding service. If I were ever in a similar situation again (car crash the week of going away on holiday with the caravan), I know exactly where to look and wouldn't hesitate in using Indigo.

Perfect so far

I have hired a car with a tow bar trough Indigo 3 times now with the pickup at Easyrent near Birmingham Airport and ti has so far worked perfectly with everything.

Hi. I booked my car on the phone and it was really straightforward. The lady was very helpful and polite. She had all the information with regards to my booking request and I was given a nice car at the reasonable price. I would recommend them to anyone. Thanks.
